Article: Top 10 Reasons to Learn ChiRunning®

ChiRunning® combines modern physics with the concepts of T’ai Chi to create an easy to learn running form that makes running more enjoyable and less stressful on your body. The ChiRunning technique is based on the same principles and orientation as Yoga, Pilates, and T’ai Chi: working with core muscles; integrating mind and body; ancient principles of movement; and focused on overall and long term performance and well-being.

All types of runners –from beginners to fitness and experienced runners, can benefit from ChiRunning.
